Split The Existing MDF File Into Mutliple Files As A File Group?


I have a huge MDF File - 120 GB File (Had setup as 1 MDF initially) -- Did not anticipate that the DB would grow to that size!!

Anyways.. I heard that the general performance woul grow if i had them as "File Groups"..

Is there anyway - to split the existing MDF file into Mutliple files as a File Group?

Where should i start? Can someone please direct me..

How To Migrate Existing Indexes To A Different File Group?
Is there any utility to migrate the existing indexes on default filegroup to a new user defined file group? The only way that I know is to delete the index and recreate with new filegroup.

How about for table? Is there any utility for migrating the existing tables to a different filegroup? The only way that I know is to create a clustered index on the new filegroup which will move the table to the new filegroup. If a clustered index exists then drop the clustered index and recreate it with the new filegroup

I am looking for an existing utility which would do the above?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanx in advance.

Moving Files (split From An Existing Thread-SSIS Equivalent To DTS Transform Data Task Properties)
Hi JayH (or anyone). Another week...a new set of problems. I obviously need to learn .net syntax, but because of project deadlines in converting from DTS to SSIS it is hard for me to stop and do that. So, if someone could help me some easy syntax, I would really appreciate it.

 

In DTS, there was a VBScript that copied a set of flat files from one directory to an archive directory after modifying the file name. In SSIS, the directory and archive directory will be specified in the config file. So, I need a .net script that retrieves a file, renames it and copies it to a different directory.

Linda

 

Here is the old VBScript Code:

Public Sub Main()

Option Explicit

Function Main()

Dim MovementDataDir

Dim MovementArchiveDataDir

Dim MovementDataFile

Dim MovementArchiveDataFile

Dim FileNameRoot

Dim FileNameExtension, DecimalLocation

Dim CurMonth, CurDay

Dim FileApplicationDate

Dim fso ' File System Object

Dim folder

Dim FileCollection

Dim MovementFile

'======================================================================

'Create text strings of today's date to be appended to the archived file.

FileApplicationDate = Now

CurMonth = Month(FileApplicationDate)

CurDay = Day(FileApplicationDate)

If Len(CurMonth) = 1 Then

CurMonth = "0" & CurMonth

End If

If Len(CurDay) = 1 Then

CurDay = "0" & CurDay

End If

FileApplicationDate = CurMonth & CurDay & Year(FileApplicationDate)

'=====================================================================

' Set the movement data directory from the global variable.

MovementDataDir = DTSGlobalVariables("gsMovementDataDir").Value

MovementArchiveDataDir = DTSGlobalVariables("gsMovementDataArchiveDir").Value

fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

folder = fso.GetFolder(MovementDataDir)

FileCollection = folder.Files

' Loop through all files in the data directory.

For Each MovementFile In FileCollection

' Get the full path name of the current data file.

MovementDataFile = MovementDataDir & "" & MovementFile.Name

' Get the full path name of the archive data file.

MovementArchiveDataFile = MovementArchiveDataDir & "" & MovementFile.Name

DecimalLocation = InStr(1, MovementArchiveDataFile, ".")

FileNameExtension = Mid(MovementArchiveDataFile, DecimalLocation, Len(MovementArchiveDataFile) - DecimalLocation + 1)

FileNameRoot = Mid(MovementArchiveDataFile, 1, DecimalLocation - 1)

MovementArchiveDataFile = FileNameRoot & "_" & FileApplicationDate & FileNameExtension

If (fso.FileExists(MovementDataFile)) Then

fso.CopyFile(MovementDataFile, MovementArchiveDataFile)

' If the archive file was coppied, then delete the old copy.

If (fso.FileExists(MovementArchiveDataFile)) Then

fso.DeleteFile(MovementDataFile)

End If

End If

Next

fso = Nothing

folder = Nothing

FileCollection = Nothing

Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success

End Function

Extract Data With Mutliple &"headers&" In 1 File
My query relates to that of Lightbug3 and the solution from X002548.

My query is how do I have multiple headers within the export file?

I am extracting order information using DTS whereby there is a header containing the purchase order number and the detail being the product ordered for that PONumber.

I need to start a new header for each new purchase order number.

I'm looking to create something similar to

PONumber 1
Product, qty
Product qty
PONumber 2
Product, qty
Product qty

Would be grateful for any advice.

Question: How To Run With Mutliple Configuration Files.
Hello,
Here is the scenario.
I'm using SSIS and SQL 2005

I have two dtsx packages. Lets call them TESTA.dtsx and TESTB.dtsx. I've enabled using XML package configurations on both.

TestB.dtsx pulls some data from a table and writes it to a flat file.
TestA.dtsx calls TestB.dtsx.

For the test I changed the TestB fileoutput connection string to save to a different location.


When I run TestA.DTSX using DTEXEC. TestB's configuration file is not being used.

How do I kick off TestA.dtsx and specify a package configuration for test b?

I tried manually copying the Config parameters from TESTB's config file to TESTA.

When I run TESTB directly from  DTEXEC and pass in it's config file as an argument it runs fine.

Split Txt File Into Multiple
How can I split this incoming file into separate txts.  I want to cut out each Header/detail row section into a new txt.  What I mean by header/detail row:





incoming txt file:



http://www.webfound.net/split.txt

basically want to cut out each section like this:

http://www.webfound.net/what_to_cut.txt

http://www.webfound.net/rows.jpg



and a kicker...each new txt name must use a certain field (based on x numbers in header row) followed by another field whcih is the date form the header row.  somethign like this:



SUBSTRING(InputFieldBigString,LEN(InputFieldBigString) - 59,4) == "HD" + SUBSTRING(InputFieldBigString,LEN(InputFieldBigString) - 1,8) == "HD" + .txt

I need some hand holding here, it's my first time trying to do something so complicated in SSIS 2005.  If I can first just get the txt split into multiple, that would be a big help.

Conditional Split On Field In Csv File
I know this should be simple but I can't figure it out.  I am reading in a csv file to a conditional split task, all I want to do is split the file based on a field.  Some values in field will have a suffix say ABCD while others wont.  So my conditional split says Right(FieldA,4)=="ABCD" which then splits file in two directions or at least it's meant to.  Problem is that it does not work.  I think it has something to do with the field type in the csv file although I have tried using a Data Conversion task but to no avail all the field values with ABCD suffix are ignored by my conditional split and head off the same way as other values.  Funny thing is is that if I manually add a value to the file with a suffix of ABCD and run task again then the conditional split works on the manually added row and all rows with suffix of ABCD.  It's like it does not recognise previous values as string until one is added manually.

Thanks

Split An Existing Proc Into Two.
I know, sounds weird, but I have an existing stored procedure that helps me create a navigational structure for my website.

Table has this structure:
uid - int
IsActive - Smallint
ParentLevel - int
ParentID - int
Name - nvarchar
Description - nvarchar

I added an additional column
DisplayOrder - int

And now I need to add another column named
Type - nvarchar

for a particular reason

The stored proc looks like this.

CREATE procedure hl_GetCategories
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
SELECT [uid], [Name] FROM Categories WITH(NOLOCK) WHERE ParentLevel = 0 AND uid > 1 ORDER BY DisplayOrder
-- added the filter for uid > 1 so that we only get actual
-- categories and not the reserved blank one.
SELECT [uid],[ParentID],[Name] FROM Categories WITH(NOLOCK) WHERE ParentLevel = 1
-- we are only need the level that is one level deep
GO

And this grabs a list of Categories and 1 Child Level SubCategory that I use to create navigation.

However, my needs have kind of changed. I need to split this proc, or create two different procs to do something similiar.

I need a list of Categories and 1 Child-Level Down where
Type = MainCat (MainCat means a general category)

or
Type = BrandCat (BrandCat means a category with the item Brand Name)

So I can create two different navigational controls.

Any idea on how best to do this?

ID   Name  AGE   Salary  Transcode   TransDate

replacing the existing row in the table(updating the whole row)

 i have 50 columns in my table  and based on the  two fields i  should replace the rows exisiting in table and if ID doesnot match exist  just add them as a new row.

Inporting Attached Excel File Into Existing Table Adding Info

The file is stored in an image object.The file will be checked (they want to do it manually, because contents is a problem). If they say it is OK, I want to run a program to add a record into an existing table with the request no. (from the first table, where the object is stored) and all the information available from the filled rows (first row is header). I have a column, which can be checked, if the row contains data or not.Any ideas?I know how to read from and write the contents of the object to a field in the SQL table. Can I use this?Thanks for any idea / code / link.

Script Task: How To Compare Files On FTP With Existing Files In Local Folder Before Transfer!
In the first step of my SSIS package I need to get files from FTP and dump it/them in a local directory, but it's more than that, the logic is like this:
1. If no file(s) found, stop executing and send email saying no file(s) found;
2. If file(s) found, then compare it/them with existing files in our archive folder; if file(s) already exist in archive folder, stop executing and send email saying file(s) already existed, if file(s) not in archive folder yet, then transfer it/them to the local directory for processing.

Primary File Group Full
Weird.  I have an Agent job that populates some warehouse data every night.  It's been working fine for over a year.  Then it fails with a message that thePRIMARY file group is full.  The database is set to Simple recovery, automatic, unrestricted growth by 10% for both the log file and the data file.  The drive it's on has 96GB free.  The data file is 1.5GB and the log is 2MB and there's not very much fluctuation in the amoutn of data going into it.
Anybody have an idea why that would happen?
Thanks for any insight,Pete

File Group Space Error
Hi,Received the following error during index creation of the tables. Thedata & log files are set to 'unrestricted growth' and enough spaceavailable on the disk. Any reasons?___________Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server (80040e14): Could not allocatenew page for database 'Ultimareports'. There are no more pages availablein filegroup PRIMARY.

Database File Group Is Full
We have a database that is set to autogrow, 10% increase.

I want to know when it will autogrow, like what % left then will it autogrow?

Also is it possible for above settings, I can in some way set up an alert that tells me the database file group--not log file is 90 % full?

Thanks
